i saw the plant view,thats the only reason i suggested the paradise fish. the only problem i see(apart from possible aggression) is that the cherry barbs might get eaten by the raphael. but as long as they stay high up and sleep in the water collumn theyll be fine
in that case,you should be fine

Could I add any more fish?
I'm considering the Gbrs the centerpiece
It'll be a male female pairing
I need a fish or two for mid level swimming I think
I currently total over 120 fish
However I've seen examples of well filtered 100 gallon tanks with 180 schooling fish alone, plus other fish too
probably,but IME serpaes are mid level swimmers

come get me tang police!
I'd nix the mosquitofish, they can get particularly aggressive toward other similar sized/type fish. The same is true about mixing livebearers like mollies and guppies, but the wild counterparts are usually worse.
As far as your overall stocking plan, I think it'd look overly busy for my taste. We are talking about a 4ft tank right?

With the kind of tank you are planning you'll likely just be adding each group and seeing what happens anyway, so it might work out fine. I do think it'd look a little more organized with less mid dwellers and/or replacing some with true topdwellers.

I consider most all tetras and barbs to be more mid/ all arounders.
Hatchets are good top fish but my hands down favorites are some of the various north American killifishes.

Guppies do spend some time at the top but they are not particularly top dwellers. I have a lot of experience with several guppy strains and I would classify them as an all around swimmer also. I don't know the specifics on killies from other countries so I can't comment on them, but I do know the ones here spend most if not all of their time on the top level, and there are dozens of species. Most are not extremely brightly colored, but they do have some nice variants.

Here's a link to my LFS's web site, there's a databank that provides pictures and info on all fish types, killifish have their own section with all the types, you may find it useful in identifying the fish you like and the requirements for them. Hope it helps
